The service
What do you mean by tree felling?
Felling is the part of tree work where a standing tree is brought down. The site and the outcome you want both matter when you ask about the job.
For example, a tree in an open area presents a different enquiry from one close to a building, fence or overhead line. Describe any nearby obstacles in your first message so the request is clear. Please do not put yourself in danger to get a closer photo.
Choosing the right enquiry
Felling, removal or pruning?
If the tree is standing and you want it taken down, ask about tree felling. If you also need the tree or resulting material taken away, say so explicitly and ask what can be included in the quote. If you want to keep the tree and address particular branches, see our pruning and trimming page.
Standing tree
Explain why you are considering felling and whether the entire tree needs to come down.
Space around it
Tell us about buildings, fences, access routes or other features close to the tree.
Before you message
Details that make your enquiry useful
- Your area. Confirm whether the property is in Mbombela or White River.
- What you need. Say whether the request is for felling only or whether you also want to discuss removal of the resulting material.
- The setting. Describe approximate tree size, access and anything nearby that may affect the work.
- Photos, if safe to take. A full view of the tree and the surrounding space can help explain the job.
